3041. If you know about truth
If you are innocentAnd do not know anything about truth,
Then truth does not hold
Anything against you.
But if you are clever
And know everything about truth,
Yet do not practise truth
In any sphere of your life,
Then the justice-light of truth
Can and will eventually torment
Your earthly existence.
Sri Chinmoy, Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, part 31, Agni Press, 1982
